Creating a Petabyte HD Array Controlled by a Single Raspberry Pi
Well here’s a Pi project you thought you’d never see. Jeff Geerling created a storage array of 60 20TB hard drives, aka over a petabyte, controlled by a Raspberry Pi 4.
It was just an experiment to see if the Pi had what it took (and to have an excuse to use one of 45Drive’s Storinator XL 60-bay server).
So, did it work? Sorta. Kinda. At least in a proof-of-concept sort of way.
